The new grading system would have awarded scores as low as a 41 on a 100-point test with a C grade, according to the Voice of San Francisco. Students with a score as low as 21 out of 100 will pass exams with a D grade, according to the Washington Free Beacon.
Maria Su, San Francisco Superintendent of Schools, unveiled the plan on Tuesday, without seeking approval from the San Francisco Board of Education, according to The Voice of San Francisco. The plan would have gone into effect this fall, in 14 high schools in the San Francisco area.
